About Meatball in sugo

Meatball in Sugo is a classic dish rooted in Italian cuisine, featuring tender, seasoned meatballs simmered in a rich tomato sauce (sugo). Typically made from a combination of ground beef, pork, or veal, the meatballs include breadcrumbs, eggs, garlic, parsley, and Parmesan cheese for depth of flavor. The vibrant tomato-based sugo is crafted from ripe tomatoes, olive oil, onions, and herbs. This dish offers a good source of protein from the meat and lycopene from the tomatoes, which supports heart health. However, it can be high in saturated fats depending on the meat ratio and preparation method. Opting for lean meats or baking the meatballs can make this hearty, comforting dish a more health-conscious choice. Serving it with whole-grain pasta or steamed vegetables balances its nutritional profile.
